Shirelle Noble | Beckley Academy - psychedelic-assisted therapy, harm reduction, facilitator education, and the role out of MDMA

Shirelle Noble is the Head of Growth & Partnerships at Beckley Academy. She co-founded The North Star Project, led public education efforts at MAPS for 2 years, and now is a part of the co-founding team at Beckley Academy. In this conversation we explore the plethora of psychedelic care practices from psychedelic-assisted therapy to the harm reduction methods of non-profits like Zendo Project and Fireside Project. We discuss Lykos Therapeutics' new drug application submitted to the FDA, the anticipated DEA rescheduling, and roll out of MDMA-assisted therapy for PTSD targeted for August 2024. Shirelle tells her story of why she is currently pursuing a Master's in Mindfulness-based Transpersonal Counseling at Naropa University and ends with emphasizing the importance of facilitator training and oversight.
